A wonderful course. I learned so much, and I loved how Jean Paul taught it, informally and with humility. I am from Ireland but the material had universal significance.

I found this course informative and enlightening as the truth was shared by the instructor and Indiginous guests. This has been a valuable experience to add to my personal reconcilliation journey.
